Researching Treichel family from Poland, West Prussia.  Would appreciate
assistance.

For instance my father was born close to the village Rypin, Poland.  I
understand that prior to 1918 Poland did not exist as a country.  Where
would be the best source of information on territorial information for
Poland?

Thanks.
